Moonfleet Manor, Dorset
Truly family friendly, laidback and a little bit quirky, Moonfleet Manor on the Dorset coast is a great spot for relaxed luxury family breaks and holidays. Some guests find the building and facilities a bit tired, but this has the benefit of meaning kids can run freely and treat the place like home (!) without your having to worry that other guests will complain. Also, you needn’t worry about packing the car up with baby/kids' equipment and toys – Moonfleet Manor has it all.
